# Security Policy

## Supported Versions

The World Component project maintains security updates for the following versions:

| Version | Supported          |
| ------- | ------------------ |
| 0.1.x   | :white_check_mark: |
| 0.0.x   | :x:                |

## Reporting a Vulnerability

We take security vulnerabilities seriously. If you discover a security issue, please follow these steps:

### 1. **Do Not Create a Public Issue**

Security vulnerabilities should not be reported through public GitHub issues, as this could expose users to potential attacks.

### 2. **Contact the Maintainer**

Email the project maintainer directly at: [maintainer-email@example.com]

### 3. **Provide Detailed Information**

Include the following information in your report:

- **Description**: Clear description of the vulnerability
- **Steps to Reproduce**: Detailed steps to reproduce the issue
- **Impact**: Potential impact of the vulnerability
- **Suggested Fix**: If you have suggestions for fixing the issue
- **Environment**: Browser, OS, and version information

### 4. **Response Timeline**

- **Initial Response**: Within 48 hours
- **Assessment**: Within 7 days
- **Fix Development**: Timeline depends on complexity
- **Public Disclosure**: After fix is available

## Security Considerations

### Three.js Security

- **WebGL Context**: Ensure proper WebGL context isolation
- **Shader Validation**: Validate all custom shaders
- **Texture Loading**: Only load textures from trusted sources
- **Model Loading**: Validate GLTF/GLB files before loading

### Vue.js Security

- **XSS Prevention**: Use Vue's built-in XSS protection
- **Template Injection**: Avoid dynamic template compilation
- **Props Validation**: Validate all component props
- **Event Handling**: Sanitize user input in event handlers

### API Security

- **Authentication**: Use proper authentication for API calls
- **HTTPS**: Always use HTTPS for API communication
- **Input Validation**: Validate all API inputs
- **Rate Limiting**: Implement rate limiting for API endpoints

### General Security

- **Dependency Updates**: Keep all dependencies updated
- **Code Review**: All code changes undergo security review
- **Environment Variables**: Never commit secrets to version control
- **Error Handling**: Avoid exposing sensitive information in error messages
